Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) will give you the right to live and work in the UK for an unlimited period of time. It is also a route to naturalisation as a British citizen. How Much Does Indefinite Leave To Remain Cost?
To obtain Indefinite Leave to Remain, you need to have lived in the UK for a period of time, usually five years, although there are two-year and ten-year routes.
You will also need to pay the ILR application fee and satisfy minimum income requirements. We take a look at how much ILR costs.

Application Fee For Indefinite Leave To Remain
The ILR application fee is £2,885 per applicant or each person that applies, so if for example you are applying for yourself and your partner the cost would be £2,885 x2 = £5,770.
The same would apply for each child as well so for a family of four the cost would be £11,540.
A priority service may be available at a cost of an additional £500. If you apply for the priority service, you should receive a decision within five working days, provided that you have supplied all of the necessary information.
A super priority service may also be available. This costs an additional £1000 and you should receive a result by the end of the next working day.
If you pay for a faster decision, bear in mind the cost is for each applicant.
These costs are expensive and if there is a problem with your application you may or may not get a refund depending on the circumstances which is why it is important that your application is prepared properly, without errors and includes all documents needed.
To stand the best chance of receiving ILR without the need to reply to enquiries or provide further information, you need to make sure that your application is comprehensive. UK Visas and
Immigration will need evidence that you satisfy all of the ILR criteria. If documents are omitted, your application is likely to be rejected.
We routinely put together successful ILR applications and we will be happy to advise you on the process and check that you have the documents needed.
